When you open an external link, a new window opens and displays the home page
Updated to the latest version (36.0 Linux) and now whenever I open a link from an external application to be steam E-mail IRC or any other source, instead of the page is displayed a new window will open and then load the home page. I tried the default browser to something else (which opened the links correctly) switching and vice versa, safe mode and even a refresh, but the problem persists.
I found this in the bug tracker.
Apparently it seems to be a problem with an old hack in XFCE or desktop environments possible on X in general, which is no longer supported in Firefox 36. A solution fast until they solve this problem, is to open a new terminal and enter:
sudo gedit /usr/share/xfce4/helpers/firefox.desktop
(replace gedit by any other text editor you use)
.. .and change the last two lines:
X-XFCE-orders = %B - distance "openURL (about: Virgin, new window)"; %B;
X-XFCE-CommandsWithParameter = %B - remote "openURL (%s)"; %B %s;
to read:
X-XFCE-orders = %B;
X-XFCE-CommandsWithParameter = B %%s;
then save the document, of course.
This solves the problem for me immediately.

When I open a link in a new window does not display the web address.
When I open a link in a new window does not display the web address. What have I done wrong? It used to work and it works if I open the link in a new tab, the problem is that I hate to use tabs prefer a new window every time... Help!
Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).
- Makes no changes on the start safe mode window.

Firefox is very slow to respond when you open and almost always unresponsive altogether, refusing even to respond to Manager task "End program" command. The "not responding" error message is also over browsing online. Several attempts must be made to get online. A loss of stability seems to be endemic at the present time.

If I put a restriction of password that only allow users who buy to print it (no copies or the modification of the document allowed)-it will have no effect on the quality of the file when people open and read the file on mobile devices like phones and tablets?
Some mobile devices won't be able to open it at all, but if it is open, the quality is not affected. Please note and understand the warning you get when you set security: indeed, it is largely ignored by many apps.

When I download a PDF in iBooks app Apple´s always displays the first page of the pdf. So, how can I change this first page to another page in the pdf file? We want to download a PDF file in the iBooks app. iBooks still displays the first page of the pdf, but the fist of our pdf page is always the same (black color). And we want to differentiate each other pdfs.
There is no standard to do this, in particular no standard method to store in a PDF file, a preview map. Is iBooks entirely to Apple, but as most of the software that he will probably use the first page without condition.
If iBooks can show something different (and it does its not useful), you will get this information to Apple.

Hello
LXCEtime.dll is a Lexmark file. If you have Lexmark/software installed on your computer, uninstall and reinstall the hardware/software Lexmark should solve the problem.

Link to information from tables and display the 'best '.
Hello! I'm totally new to this great software, and the truth is that I lost D:
I try to explain in more detail what I have to do, I hope you can help me please it is urgent T_TI do 3 tables must be related to each other, that is to say a table where a username will be manually enter, another where you manually enter the user name and the third which will automatically enter power of each user (for automatic writing, I'll use random data). Each table will have a box number, for example:
Table 1, box 1: Paul
Table 2, box 1: door
Table 3, box 1: 3.74
Table 1, box 2: Miguel
Table 2, box 2: Ramos
Table 3, zone 2: 4.99
Table 1, box 3: Maelle
Table 2, area 3: Branco
Table 3, case 3: 4.98
I mean, I bind the box to one table with the other three. And because the program must compare the data in table 3 (power) and display the data of the user of best (which has the highest power). In this example, the program should appear:
BEST USER:
NAME: MIGUEL RAMOS
POWER: 4.99(Is not slender record information when I close the program)
I don't know if I ask you very much, I have a very clear idea in my head of what I have to do, but being a new software for my not know how to implement it.
Thank you in advance for your quick response and help and ilustrative! xD
Have you tried something with the basic understanding of your question check if this is what you need?
-Still not clear what you mean by table? (In my opinion, the table is 2d array of values here, otherwise please let me know.)
-C' is the reason why I asked you to show your code you did then it will be clearer.

Using Windows Vista.
When you move the pointer over known link, pointer does not change or indicate a viable relationship.
No destination link in the bottom left of my screen looks like either java script instead of an Internet link.
I find this problem on all the websites I, some links may not work.
It's very frustrating because I have to go to a different web browser (IE) to see the link.
I was not able to open a new window (two windows) since the update with Firefox 11.
Think about the last update, I had two windows open until Flash updated.The 'how' to Reset article is: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems

Using Firefox 8.0.1 on an iMac. When I open Firefox, the bookmarks toolbar is fine, but when I connect to Hotmail, it opens a new window and the toolbar disappears.
Under the view menu, the bookmarks bar is always checked, but the toolbar is not there.
Sites Web can remove the appearance of the toolbars on the pop-up windows that they open.
Do you really need the bar tools bookmarks to appear when you view your Hotmail email address?
If so, Type Subject: config in the URL bar and press ENTER.
If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access this page.Filter = dom.disable_window_open_feature.toolbar = double-click this pref to switch to true , and then restart Firefox.

Before I updated to firefox 28, I was able to hit cmd + N and it will open a new window with the exact same Web page I was on. Now, he opens a new window with my home page. I guess I got an add-on or extension, but I'm desperate to be able to do it again. Ideas?
You can watch this extension:
